Today, Warriors head coach Steve Cole was interviewed by reporters, and Xiaoba organized some of his remarks.

Reporter: How do you view the performance of the six games of chasing dreams? What do you hope he will bring in the tiebreak battle?

Cole: I think he is the key to our team on an emotional level. He has experienced many tiebreakers and has also played very outstanding tiebreakers. I think he also understands that this series is not good for him. You know, he rarely plays big guys in this series to pick-and-roll, the opponent always uses Van Vreet to guard him, trying to remove him from the offense, causing him to lose his pace, and trying to anger him and let him take technical fouls or malicious fouls, just like Jaylen Green did last night.

Zhongmeng knew that he could not respond like that. He must remain calm and realize that he is the best defender in the world. If each of us does our job well, he is also defending in the best condition while controlling his emotions. In addition, we do not make mistakes, we have a great chance to win and he can laugh to the end.

Reporter: Do you think there is still a so-called "easy" series for chasing dreams?

Coach: Yes. I mean, the game is even more fun for him when he can play his own game and play in the pick-and-roll. Houston knows that they have the right players who can make adjustments in the position and match us, thereby suppressing the efficiency of dream-chasing on the offensive end, and they do a good job in this regard.

Tomorrow at 8:30 am, the Warriors and Rockets' tiebreak will begin.
